Pueblos West Co to Dinosaur Co

Just wanted to thank you folks for your suggestions. The entire run was great. From Canon City to Craig we enjoyed good roads and fantastic scenery. Now on to Dinosaur NP.

The section of your route with the most curves will be from Canon City to Salida.
Goes along the Arkansas River and is slow and curvy, but a pretty drive.

Thank You. Now I can figure out which campgrounds to use. This is the poke around part of our trip and 125 to 150 miles per day is our limit. No problem staying 2 or 3 days if we find a nice camp.
Again Thanks.

With the nearly daily closure of I-70 through Glenwood Canyon, sometimes for over 24 hours straight, I'd say your route is the way to go. The only "real" pass is Tennessee Pass north of Leadville and it's a quite manageable pass.

US 50 to CO 9 to US 40 may be the quickest, but you'll have both Hoosier Pass and Rabbit Ears Pass to cross.

Make sure you have adequate fuel before you head north on CO 131. Not much along that road until you get close to Steamboat Springs.
